Taurus, the bull of the zodiac, never forgets a slight. Once someone does them wrong, they won’t forget about it. That relationship is pretty much done for. Taureans don’t let go of grudges easily.
They have great memories, too. It takes a lot to make them really mad. But if you cross them, look out! They aren’t going to just be angry – they’ll be furious. And they won’t think twice about cutting people off for good if someone makes them angry.
How Taurus Acts When Angry
When Tauruses get angry, watch out. Their rage builds slowly but steadily, like a volcano preparing to erupt. They may seem calm and collected, but underneath that stoic exterior, frustration and annoyance are simmering.
Taureans have long memories. Once someone does them wrong, they don’t forget about it – ever. Even when they’re not mad anymore, they’ll still have bad feelings about what happened. And it’s not that they’re unwilling to forgive, it’s just that they think forgiving means they could get hurt again down the road. So usually, if someone crosses a Taurean, that’s it – they’re out of their life for good. No second chances from a Taurean!
They Get Stubborn And Defiant
Once Tauruses dig into a position, their hooves are planted. They refuse to budge or see other perspectives. Trying to reason with an irate Taurus is like talking to a brick wall. Their stubbornness stems from their deep need for stability and consistency. Admitting they’re wrong can shake the foundations of their world, so they double down instead.
They Lash Out Physically
As an earth sign, Taurus is strongly connected to the physical world. When their emotions build up, they tend to release that energy through physical actions. A Taurus’s anger may show as stomping, slamming things, raising their voice, or even violence. Their rage is a very primal and visceral feeling that looks for a tangible way to get out.
Something positive – while a Taurus’s temper or anger can be really strong, it usually doesn’t last long. If they have time to think about it, their logical mind will take over again. A Taurus may even say sorry once they calm down and see their mistake. It’s always best to give an angry Taurus space until the storm passes.
Why Taurus Tend To Hold Grudges
Taurus are known for being stubborn, and their fixed nature means they have a hard time letting go of past hurts and perceived slights. Once you’ve wronged a Taurus, they’ll hold a grudge for a long time, if not forever.
They Value Loyalty
For Taurus signs, loyalty means everything. They are incredibly devoted to their friends and family. If a Taurus feels betrayed by someone they trusted, it really hurts them. They don’t forget things easily. Even if a Taurus forgives you, they won’t forget what happened. Once a Taurus’ trust in someone is broken, it will be really hard to earn it back again.
They Feel Betrayed
Taurus folks tend to see things in very black and white, right or wrong kind of way. So if they feel someone betrayed or lied to them, they take it really personally. They just can’t understand why someone would want to hurt them like that. And they’ll keep going over and over what happened, trying to make sense of it. But rehashing it like that only makes their grudge stronger. It’s tough for them to let things go once that trust is broken.
They Like Stability
More than anything, Taurus craves stability and consistency. Any threat to their routine or relationships is seen as threatening. Forgiving and forgetting would mean upsetting the status quo, and that is deeply uncomfortable for this fixed earth sign. It’s easier for Taurus to hold onto resentment than to make big changes.
They Value Justice
There is a stubborn sense of right and wrong with Taurus, and when they feel they have been wronged, they want justice to be served. An apology may not be enough – they want to see the guilty party suffer in some way. If Taurus doesn’t feel the scales have been balanced, they will hang onto their anger as a way of punishing the offender.
My Advice
If you made your Taurus friend or partner angry, you need to apologize right away. Don’t wait around – Taurus never forgets. Don’t expect them to be smiling at you again two months from now. You need to muster up your courage and go apologize to them. Let them know it won’t happen again so they can start trusting you again.
